Ive made bacon a few times and always smoke to 150 as per Meatheads suggestion, but the color of my bacon is always so pale. I dont get that rich brown I see in so many peoples pictures. Still tastes delicious tho...
Since the bacon is only in there for two hours do I need to add more wood, I usually just spread a few chunks throughout my fire pan as I do when I smoke anything else.
I use about 5 or 6 wood chunks when I smoke my bacon and I smoke about 30 lbs at a time on my Ranch. Usually a mix of apple and hickory. What type of wood are you using?
